Juju Predisik is in his first year as the Sasquatch hitting coach.  He is a welcome addition as he brings a tremendous amount of knowledge and experience.  He was an assistant coach at Whitworth College for four years and helped lead their program to new heights.   He has attended many clinics and has perfected the art of teaching linear hitting, the same technique used by the USA Olympic Softball Team and their coach, Mike Candreas. 

Janet Skaife believes, “Juju has been a great hitting instructor.  Our players have adjusted well to linear hitting and will only continue to get better as Juju works with them.  He is a real motivator and is so positive with our athletes.  I feel fortunate to have him on our staff.  He not only has been a great hitting coach, but he also has helped me with recruiting.  We have landed more Greater Spokane League players this year because of his help.”

Juju is currently coaching the Northwest American Athletics U-18 Gold summer softball team.  As an assistant coach with the Spokane Eagles in 2006, the team team finished in 7th place at Nationals U-18 with a 32-6 record.  He also coached the Colville Tribe U-14 team and they finished 9th in the Nation.

A high school guidance counselor at Shadle Park High School, Juju brings his expertise to our field after a full day of work.  He is married to a wonderful woman named Connie, and they have a son, Chad, and a daughter, Tressa, who will play for us in 2009.
